Grand Theatre

The Adelphi (legit)Theater was built about 1850 on Summer-later 5th Ave- below Cedar- later called Charlotte. IT changed names several times and by the tine it burned in about 1900 it was being called the Grand. The stock company that had been playing there then moved to the “Masonic” on the north side of Church between Cherry (4th) and Summer (5th) and at first began to be called the “Little Grand” and then simply the Grand.
